Life will soon be good as LG’s first Android handset has made its official debut, in the shape of the LG GW620. If this baby looks familiar to you, well, that is because it’s the same as the LG Etna which was showcased at IFA in Germany earlier this month. Except for name change, there’s really nothing new with this smartphone, as far as specs are concerned.

The LG-GW620 signifies the company’s intent to continue to offer Windows Mobile devices with its â€œtwo-tier smartphone technology. The LG-GW620 has both a 3-inch full touchscreen and slide-out QWERTY keypad to meet the growing needs of consumers who rely on their mobile phones for more than just making calls. The handset benefits from an operating system that was created from the ground up to take advantage of the many mobile applications and services developed by search leader – Google.

In anticipation of strong demand for smartphones that support social networking functions right out-of-the-box, the LG-GW620 also lives up to LG’s consumer-friendly design philosophy by making the handset experience more accessible for typical users. LG’s messaging phones have been very popular with young professionals who demand a full QWERTY keypad for a fast mobile computing experience, and the new LG-GW620 manages to meet the needs of both types of users at the same time. The phone also listed as having Bluetooth, USB, and a 5-megapixel camera.

No pricing details, but the LG-GW620 will be available in the 4th quarter of this year in selected European markets. U.S. availability is unknown. For the meantime, you can drool over these LG smartphones available at Amazon.
